Knowing what you need to store and actually acquiring it are two different things all together. It may seem impossible to purchase all the food you will need to complete your storage if you're already struggling to make ends meet.

Have faith! It CAN be done.

The following scripture always bolstered me in times of discouragment:

I will go and do the things which the Lord hath commanded, for I know that the Lord giveth no commandments unto the children of men, save he shall prepare a way for them that they may accomplish the thing which he commandeth them.

1 Nephi 3:7

Just like Nephi, we need to apply a little "stick-to-it-ness" and find creative ways to accomplish what the Lord has counseled us to do. The following are resources that may prove valuable or inspiring as you strive to acquire your storage.

Don't miss the latest article, "Why and How to Store Food", by your new LDS Guide, Rachel Woods.
